pyromaniaI was also very interested in fire at the age of 13.
The results are:
1. If you're going to put a Camping Gaz refill in a bonfire, stand WELL back.
2. Ditto asbestos roof tiles; they send fragments of asbestos at high velocity in random directions.
3. When you've used the gunpowder from shotgun cartridges in other experiments, don't throw the remains on the fire; the detonator is still in there.

Cans of baked beans/creamed corn are fun too - well, the old ones you had to open with a can opener anyway. They went everywhere!
